Chapter 990 Bestseller
I slowly put down the storybook, my mouth twitching: Originally, the tragic ending was good, and I was resurrected when I was told to be resurrected, so how could I write a good story?
Thinking like this, I got angry inexplicably and decided to find out who the author of the book was. If it was someone I didn't know, I would find him out. Then I would take my two-meter-long tachi and force him to His neck made him change the ending!
Thinking of this, I opened the cover of the book and scanned every word on the title page with a pair of murderous eyes.
When I found the author's name column, I was completely confused.
Because, my revenge plan came to nothing.
I know the author's name - Cecil, the man who became a millionaire after finding a gold mine, and later came to Airey City to open a teahouse, and was the troubadour who was an old acquaintance of Rodney. .
I didn’t expect that he would actually make up stories and publish them in books!
But having said that, there seems to be nothing wrong with the fact that a bard can make up stories. If he can't even make up stories, what qualifications does he have to call himself a bard.
Forget it, since it's someone I know, I won't push him.
Thinking of this, I sighed slightly, turned around and asked Barbara: "Is the story still good?"
However, as soon as I turned around, I was shocked by Barbara's expression. The girl's eyes were red, and her tears were falling down. As she was returning them, she kept wiping them with a handkerchief, and she kept mumbling: : "It's so touching, it's so touching. Sacrifice oneself for the one you love, this is true love. Fortunately, fortunately, the God of Creation saved the girl in the end, otherwise I would have cried to death, woo woo woo."
I was so ashamed.
Just as she was about to comfort her, she heard other sobs in her ears. She turned around and saw three little lolita sitting on the carpet wiping their tears. Lily whimpered: "Brother Xiaoyi, this story is too .So touching, woo woo woo.”
Remi and Lizzie remained silent and kept wiping their tears.
Seeing this, I stood up and turned to Analita opposite in distress. The princess curled her lips at me, showing an expression of 'She is also very helpless'.
At this moment, the kitchen door opened, and the landlady came out with a pot of soup. When she saw Barbara and the three little lolita wiping away tears, her face immediately turned dark, and she looked at me with a murderous expression. :"what happened?"
I hurriedly opened the storybook and said innocently: "It's none of my business, it was this storybook that made them cry!"
The landlady then regained her calm expression, and she looked at Barbara with a loving look on her face: "This child is so kind, eh."
I just felt relieved, breathed a sigh of relief, and murmured: "I almost died. It's really scary."
When Barbara stopped sobbing, I asked her, "Where did you buy this book?"
Barbara said: "In the bookstore on the street, there are many stories there, all about the deeds of legendary heroes."
"Oh~ That's it~"
I stood up and put on my coat. Princess Analita asked me, "What are you doing?"
“Of course I’ll take a walk in the bookstore~”
The princess frowned and muttered: "It's almost time for dinner. You want to go out, and I don't know how long I have to wait for you."
"It won't be long." I straightened my collar: "I'll be back soon."
I quickly arrived at the bookstore and walked around several rows of bookshelves. I asked the store owner: "How many kinds of story books are there about legendary heroes?"
The shopkeeper thought for a moment and said, "Which type do you want?"
"What type?" I thought for a while and asked, "Are there any books by Cecil?"
The shopkeeper nodded: "Yes."
He stood up and wandered in front of a bookshelf for a while, pulling out a few books from the densely arranged rows of books, and then took out a few books from another position, and then he stacked the two stacks together. He held the book in front of me, put it gently on the table, patted the book and said, "These are all books written by Cecil, fifteen books in total."
"Fifteen books!" My eyes twitched: "He must be so good at writing."
"Yes." The shopkeeper nodded: "It is said that Cecil was a bard in the past. He has traveled to many unknown places in the Zephyr Continent, and thus learned a lot of history and knowledge that we don't know. One of the great things about this knowledge is Part of it is related to the past of the legendary hero, and I heard that he is currently preparing for his sixteenth book."
I actually didn’t know Cecil very well. I had only met him a few times. Seeing that the shopkeeper spoke in such a detailed and natural manner, I asked him, “Do you know Cecil?”
The shop owner shook his head: "I don't know him. I've never even met him."
"Then how do you know these things?"
The shopkeeper opened the last page of the book and showed it only to me.
I only glanced at it and knew why - the last page recorded Cecil's interview with the newspaper.
Look at the cover of this book again. It’s a book from a long time ago. Cecil, the co-author, was already so famous a long time ago!
While I was lost in thought, the shop owner said: "Cecil's books are very popular in Zephyr Continent, especially among female readers. However, there are very few male readers of his books. To be honest, I I have also read his works and found them very unpleasant. If you want to read them yourself, I do not recommend you buy this book. But if you want to read it to your daughter, I do recommend it."
"Oh, I read it to my sister."
He said that reading a story to his fiancée was a bit too much of a show of affection, which was not good. It would be more appropriate to replace his fiancée with a younger sister.
However, I didn't expect that after the shopkeeper heard me say the word "sister", his expression changed and became extremely ambiguous. As he spoke, he put the storybooks into the bag one by one and handed them over. He gave it to me and said: "You really love your sister very much~"
What I said was extremely ambiguous, and you were confused when I heard it.
After paying the money and taking the book, I walked home. As I walked, I thought about what the shopkeeper said, but no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn't figure out what went wrong with my words, causing him to have that "I love my sister" idea.
Subconsciously, I opened the bag and glanced at the cover of the book on the top of the stack. At a glance, I instantly understood what was going on - the cover of the first book, the title read: Legendary Heroes The love story with his biological sister.
Ah! Damn it.
What kind of legendary hero is this? He is doing the same thing as German orthopedics!
Is this true history?
Or is it something Cecil compiled purely to defraud money?
Moreover, what is most incomprehensible to me is that the legendary heroes, these people who are regarded as gods by the people of Zephyr Continent, not only have their love stories not been banned, but they have also become bestsellers and widely circulated!
